We do have both the collections at scrapbookgeneration.com. And like you, I’ve been surprised at the lack of mention of the release by MME on social media. I was looking for some extra promotional images and couldn’t find a thing. I love them both, but Gingham Foundry has been the most popular so far, I think because of the navy and gold color combo. Based on their move in this direction, I’m debating begging them to just reprint all my old favorites. I loved those old collections. Nothing has compared to them for years, at least to me. Not just WA , but Lost and Found, So Sophie, Stella and Rose, to name a few. Oh yes! All of those collections!! When I did a big purge I came across paper and embellishments from old school MME and couldn’t bring myself to get rid of them. Do they still have the same textured, heavyweight paper? Just talking about this makes me want to pull out my stuff and scrapbook with it! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ The paper is not textured, but it is a really nice weight. I have tons of the older collections, too. If ever use them all, I'll probably cry! Any time I post a layout using those collections, people always ask about them. I just have to think they would still be popular, especially with those of us who long for some "generic" collections from time to time, instead of specific themes.

I saw the Wild Asparagus line at a LSS, it looked really nice although I didn't "feel" the paper for weight or texture. The embellishments for it didn't "speak to me" so I didn't buy any, at least not yet. I would love to see some Kaisercraft-style embellishments with this line, and I might go see if I can find some to mix and match.

I don’t like grungy so WA and the newer Simple Stories aren’t my jam. Gingham and Foundry however... 😍🥰 I saw them on the SG site when I signed up for the upcoming class. I’m a sucker for blue and white with yellow accents. You should see my house.

I absolutely loved the Wild Asparagus of old. I can't remember the name but they had a line that was blue, green and brown. It was perfect for my DS's golf pages. So happy to see it come back! Thanks for giving us a heads up!

Add me to the list of people who loved and still have some of MME old WA! As for the new one, unfortunately my tastes have changed and maybe I need to see them in person to change my mind....

If you go to A Cherry On Top, they have a bunch of old EP collection kits for $7.99. Maybe rereleasing is the new trend. At first, I thought I was on the wrong website...

I still have a LOT of WA - and yes! that spinner with the paper and the coordinating little pieces of Cardstock embellishments/cut-aparts. I also loved the brighter Kaleidoscope line. Still have a lot of that too.

I was inspired by this thread and pulled out some of MME’s Laundry Line. I’ve got so much MME and it’s all still so gorgeous. I need to pull it out more often.

Oh man, I LOVED those old MME collections! I wish more companies would re-release old lines! (Basic gray...I'm talking to you!)

I liked Wild Asparagus. I still have some I think. I liked the texture and weight of it.

Speaking of MME I saw they're doing a spring cleaning sale with a bit of paper crafting items included. I love me some $3 6x6's but the shipping is too much for me.

Wasn’t wild asparagus kind of like a brand under MME? Not just one particular line? I used to love all of the MME/wild asparagus papers. I haven’t seen any at the craft store for awhile but will have to check for it. My only complaint is that they were usually very frilly, and that won’t really work as well now that my boys are older.
I also loved Chatterbox. Oh, the memories....
